Directory Security

Directory Security is a super handy tool that helps you keep your important files safe by hiding folders. This is especially great if you share your computer with others and want to keep things private.

How It Works

This method of hiding folders is different from what Windows offers. Even if someone tries to check for hidden files, they won’t see the folders protected by this software. It's like having a secret stash that only you know about!

Easy Setup

The setup process is pretty quick, but make sure you have .NET Framework installed first. After launching the program, you'll need to set up a password. You’ll enter this password every time you want to hide or show your folders again.

User-Friendly Design

Directory Security has a simple and friendly interface. When you open it, you'll see a big window where everything is laid out clearly. It even has a built-in file navigator to help you find the folders you want to hide quickly.

Easily Hide or Show Folders

Once you've protected your folders, they'll disappear from your usual file explorer but will still show up in the Directory Security window. They are listed separately, so you can easily manage them with just one click to hide or unhide them using two clear buttons.

Password Protection Tips

You can check for updates and change your master password anytime, which is super useful! Just remember to pick a strong password that's tough for anyone else to guess—mix uppercase and lowercase letters, numbers, and symbols for extra security.

Simplicity at Its Best

The options for hiding and unhiding folders are straightforward and easy to understand. The commands work instantly without needing a system reboot! However, be aware that some users might run into issues during installation—just something to keep in mind.

If you're looking for privacy on your shared computer, give Directory Security a try!
